Heather and Cynthia are back after Thanksgiving and fully committed to the chaos that is early December—menopausal bras, mounting dogs, viral Walmart sweaters, and all that kinda stuff. Heather recaps her Floribama trip and attending church in a bar. Cynthia counters with peak Christmas in Dallas energy with a decked–out Advent service where the trees were glowing, Silent Night was soaring, and JB chose to bring in …a Rubik’s Cube. During church. Naturally.
They talk about college kids coming home (and changing the whole vibe of the house in about 12 hours), using ChatGPT as a free holiday therapist, and a viral post from a 76-year-old grandma that has them rethinking how much we center everything around the nuclear family at the holidays. There are front-yard cigar sessions, awkward ex-boyfriend run-ins, grandmas eating puzzle pieces, and a deep dive into whether anyone actually needs Matthew McConaughey’s book of poems and prayers under the tree.
It’s another good week to be Sidetracked!
